Carrie Underwood - The Night Before (Life Goes On): chords

A          B
Sittin' up on the roof
A            B
Sneakin' a smoke by the chimney
A         B
Checkin' out the moon
         E
And the city lights
A                  B
He takes off his flannel shirt
A                B
And drapes it around her shoulders
  A          B           E
Slides up behind her and holds on tight
And she says

C#m      B                 A
I don't want this night to end
Why does it have to end

Chorus:
   B                A
Tomorrow she'll be rollin down I-10
 E
Baton Rouge, LSU
B                     A
18 years in her rear-view
B                  A                 E
He's got a Friday paycheck lined up down the block
At daddy's shop
B
It ain't much but it's a job
C#m                         B                 F#/A#
They've been dreadin' this moment all summer long
A
The night before
Life goes on

Ooh
A tear falls off her cheek and
Right when it hits his arm, he says
"Come on, baby, let's get out of here"
They take one last drive around town
And man, it already looks different
He bangs the wheel and says, "Life ain't fair"
And this growing up stuff, man, I don't know
I just don't wanna let you go

Chorus:
Tomorrow she'll be rolling down I-10
Baton Rouge, LSU
Eighteen years in her rear view
He's got a Friday paycheck lined up down the block
At daddy's shop
It ain't much, but it's a job
They've been dreading this moment all summer long
The night before life goes on

Yeah, that's what my mama told me
And just like those kids
I didn't wanna listen to no one
Yeah, there's nothing you can do
There's nothing you can say
And I know how it feels when love goes away

Chorus:
Tomorrow she'll be rolling down I-10
Baton Rouge LSU
Eighteen years in her rear view
He's got a Friday paycheck lined up down the block
At daddy's shop
It ain't much, but it's a job
They've been dreading this moment all summer long
But here it is, they don't have long
The night before life goes on

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
